Are you alive? Are you surviving? Are you remote teaching or hybrid or back Face to Face? I’m currently still teaching remotely. I honestly can’t even believe it. We are about to start WEEK SEVEN. I’ve completed SIX WHOLE WEEKS OF THIS. We don’t have a return date so I think we will be doing this for quite awhile. The best thing I can say about it is that we are making connections and building a classroom community despite the distance. Other than that, it’s a big ole let down. It just IS. I want to hug the kids. I want to see their expressions up close and IN PERSON. I want to read with them ..read more

Morning Warm Up

Hello Hello Hello! It is Saturday and I have officially completed three weeks of Remote Teaching. There have been SO MANY tech issues. I have yet to have a day where everything goes smoothly, but the kids make it ALL WORTH IT. For real! I love their little faces through the screen and I’m already starting to figure out their interests and hobbies. It’s not ideal, but we do what we can, right? The best thing I’ve done so far is come up with a plan for my Morning Whole Group Zooms. Before that, I was a wreck. Each night, I was scrambling to find something to do with my class for a “morning me ..read more

I started school on Tuesday of this week. REMOTELY. We will be remote for the near future with no end date set, and no end date in mind. Which is why I have not been blogging per usual. I’ve just been trying to keep my head above water. This is my brain right now: I can tell you that I am a Remote First Grade Teacher. Which means, if we ever DO return to the classroom, I will return with my Remote Students and it will practically be like NORMAL. And please don’t say the New Normal. So SCHOOL! It started! On Tuesday! And I lived to tell about it!!!!! It started with ..read more

Oh my word. YOU GUYS. I feel so out of sorts with my life right now that I can’t even remember the last time that I blogged. And I LOVE blogging! I have been a little more active on Instagram so maybe you’re catching up with me on there . . . so some of what I’m about to say may be redundant. BUT HOLY COW WHAT IS THIS LIFE THAT WE ARE LIVING? I start school WITH CHILDREN two weeks from now. And I don’t even know if I am teaching first grade. I think I am. I hope I am. I am praying that I am. I hope to know by tomorrow or Tuesday, but we don’t even have our staffing assignments yet!!!!!! This i ..read more

WHO AM I?

You might remember that back in March when all of this first happened, and our schools went online, and we were all told to self quarantine and shelter in place that I spoke on Instagram (and maybe even here on my blog) that I was completely and totally against primary students using digital resources because BY GOLLY, THEY NEED TO PICK UP A PENCIL AND USE IT. And while I was at it, I said they needed to work on their fine motor skills, and their printing, and anything else that sounded good, and relevant, and made me feel better, and I also said, and I quote: “I’m not going to do it.“ I thin ..read more

THREE THINGS

I don’t even know where to begin! Hello! How are you? Once again, it’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve blogged, and I know that’s not at all normal, and it actually makes me sad because I enjoy writing, but what do I have to say? Hmmm. Okay, I can think of three things! ONE Let me tell you that I survived Distance Learning. The year is over. It’s bizarre, it doesn’t feel right, I did not like it at all. I did, however, get to go to school one day for one of the drive through drop off/collect days! I didn’t think we were going to be allowed, but then we were so I jumped on it. It was not at a ..read more

Hi! How are you? Like, REALLY and TRULY, how are you? I’m done. Not with school, not technically, but I’m mentally and emotionally done with just about everything. I don’t want this to become a whiny post because I feel like that’s all I’ve been doing lately, but I am also always about keeping it real so I’m going to try to find some kind of a balance. I know the last time I blogged was about how Zooms were going with my class (spoiler alert if you haven’t read the post — downhill fast!) and I think that was two weekends ago. Because what do I have to blog about on a weekly basis? Other than ..read more
